The techniques of glassblowing have evolved for thousands of years, and working with the material for me has become a process of taking this super hot liquid and freezing it to room temperature in a controlled but sometimes precarious balancing act of heat, gravity, timing and human intervention in these processes.
I find glass most beautiful when worked in such a way that somehow captures and eventually expresses this fluidity as a material while maximizing its unique relationship with light and color.
While being decorative, most of my work is also functional as I've often felt most satisfied making things that are both beautiful and useful.
